Wired Campus – “In her recently published study, â€œStudent Perceptions of a Course Taught in Second Life,â€ Ms. Cheal wrote that the 15 undergraduate students enrolled in the course raised concerns that too much â€œplayâ€ in the assignments inhibited learning. The students also cited problems with the programâ€™s slow speed and with challenges acclimating to virtual life.”
